On the front cover of the latest VW Driver magazine there is a photo of a White Silver GTI. Inside there are plenty of high quality photos for anyone who has yet to see the colour in the flesh. In the review, they describe the colour as "unusual". Anyone like to read between the lines on that colour description?

The red GTI trim does make it look a little better. Though I'm still not a fan of the light grey colour. It is too "unusual" for my tastes :undecided: :smiley:

I saw a standard Golf in White Silver recently and "unusual" sums it up well. "Different" also springs to mind. Not for me.

Saw a basic Golf in white silver at dealers and it looked terrible which was disappointing as it was my preference. The GTi may look better but can't see the red stripes transforming the colour. Purple isn't for me either so it's got to be a metallic as don't want pure white again and not sure red is for me.

Sounds like you're going to have to fork out for Oryx White then :evil:

Probably not. If ordering now it would likely be Indium Grey or Atlantic Blue. Love the white but no point getting same again and the non metallic white seems to chip ridiculously easily.

I have gone for Indium Grey, fortunate to have seen majority of colours in the flesh so I could make an informed decision!

White silver was my first choice and I wanted to love it, but very marmite, in the showroom under lights it looks very glossy but outdoors in natural light I think it looks very dull. Oryx White the best white colour option but £££.

Played it safe with Indium Grey which i'm happy with.

I've gone for Indium grey too. Seen it on a few other VWs and looks pretty good when clean and polished. Looking forward to delivery and seeing it in the flesh  :smiley:
